[ 17:07:08 ] mazzilliu > well i raised this issue because as it turns out i like pizza and i think that using eve to enable more of this pizza stuff to happen is probably a good thing. [ 17:07:29 ] mazzilliu > and its probably good publicity for ccp, because as it turns out most eve players also happen to like pizza [ 17:08:01 ] mazzilliu > so anyways thats all, i'd like to give a shoutout to one of my favorite foods too, pizza *bro fist* [ 17:08:07 ] T'Amber > !

[ 17:10:51 ] Mynxee > mazz go [ 17:11:20 ] mazzilliu > is not! this is a publicity opportunity for CCP and can get them more income. its got a really positive responce from players and not many people have the negative attitude you two do [ 17:11:32 ] mazzilliu > in the thread i dont see anybody disbarging pizza [ 17:11:34 ] Helen Highwater > !

[ 17:12:23 ] ElvenLord > and we aer wondering why ppl think bad on CSM when we have retards like mazz in it [ 17:12:25 ] ElvenLord > :facepalm: [ 17:12:39 ] Vuk Lau > c [ 17:12:47 ] Mynxee > i agree with vuk. i was half of mind to disallow this topic. but it got many supports in ah and thus i decided to let it play out in all its glory here. but it is ridiculous. [ 17:12:48 ] mazzilliu > >O< [ 17:12:50 ] Mynxee > helen go [ 17:12:56 ] Helen Highwater > Sony did the same thing years ago in Everquest just FYI. The /pizza command in collaboration with Dominos was not a success.[end] [ 17:13:07 ] Mynxee > meissa go [ 17:13:09 ] Meissa Anunthiel > Our job is not to focus on CCP's income, they do that well enough. The focus of the CSM is to improve the *game* not the revenue stream. Stop wasting everyone's time with this kind of thing. Thx. [/end] [ 17:13:17 ] Mynxee > dv go [ 17:13:31 ] Dierdra Vaal > I'm actually tempted to vote yes, as I'm curious to know how CCP feels about this... [ 17:13:42 ] Dierdra Vaal > and the issue actually got a sizable amount of support from players. [ 17:13:52 ] Dierdra Vaal > Though I dont think it would be high priority [ 17:13:53 ] Dierdra Vaal > end [ 17:13:55 ] T'Amber > ^^ [ 17:14:08 ] Vuk Lau > wtf [ 17:14:14 ] Mynxee > let's vote, i don't think there is a need for further analysis of this. [ 17:14:20 ] Vuk Lau > no [ 17:14:21 ] Mynxee > Y or N on this issue? [ 17:14:23 ] Mynxee > N [ 17:14:23 ] Meissa Anunthiel > no [ 17:14:24 ] Trebor Daehdoow > NO [ 17:14:25 ] mazzilliu > y [ 17:14:25 ] TeaDaze > n [ 17:14:26 ] Dierdra Vaal > y [ 17:14:37 ] ElvenLord > n [ 17:15:56 ] Dierdra Vaal > pretty sure elvenlord cant vote?

[ 17:18:36 ] TeaDaze > ! [ 17:19:01 ] mazzilliu > the issue is to change logoff timer mechanics so that if they are shot after being logged off, their timer gets reset. this is so that gangs with low dps can kill big ships that have logged off recklessly [ 17:19:06 ] Sokratesz > ! [ 17:19:12 ] mazzilliu > if the crash was legitimate they can log back on it wont make a difference [ 17:19:19 ] Helen Highwater > ! [ 17:19:22 ] Meissa Anunthiel > ! [ 17:19:24 ] Vuk Lau > ! [ 17:19:29 ] mazzilliu > if they are just trying to run from a fight, and stay logged off, they won't be so likely to get away [ 17:19:36 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:19:42 ] Mynxee > el go [ 17:19:45 ] Dierdra Vaal > ! [ 17:19:45 ] ElvenLord > both of those topics along with proposed solutions are in the backlog as separate issues done by CSM4 and CSM3 [ 17:20:12 ] mazzilliu > not with thie specific solution [ 17:20:19 ] ElvenLord > each of issues have 3-4 solutions proposed and it has been left to CCP to pick one together with CSM [ 17:20:24 ] TeaDaze > ( Self destruct rebalancing as passed by CSM4 - http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Balance_self-destruction_%28CSM%29 ) [ 17:20:27 ] Vuk Lau > what elven said [ 17:20:30 ] ElvenLord > so I do not understand why is this here again? [ 17:20:32 ] ElvenLord > [end] [ 17:20:33 ] Vuk Lau > c [ 17:20:47 ] Mynxee > teadaze go [ 17:20:53 ] TeaDaze > Passed 8/1 for ship size changes timer [ 17:21:24 ] TeaDaze > So I say this is a duplicate and should be dropped [end] [ 17:21:34 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 17:21:41 ] Mynxee > sok go [ 17:21:42 ] ElvenLord > just to add, you might want to ask for status update on those [ 17:21:44 ] Korvin > hi all [ 17:21:51 ] Sokratesz > i was about to say the same, best we can do it bump ccp about it again cause i've been getting more complaints about the current mechanics lately [end] [ 17:21:58 ] Mynxee > hi korvin [ 17:22:05 ] Mynxee > bumps do not require a vote. [ 17:22:07 ] Mynxee > helen go [ 17:22:09 ] Helen Highwater > AFAIK this will make no difference at all. If the person logs on a different cahracter on the same account then the old one will vanish instantly anyhow. Changing that mechanic would open up a whole can of worms with multiple characters on the same [ 17:22:32 ] Helen Highwater > account active on the server simultaneously with all the potential for abuse that has with it. [end] [ 17:22:36 ] Mynxee > meissa go [ 17:22:39 ] Meissa Anunthiel > If the crash was legitimate, you just gave everyone free gank. And for self-destruct, I favour increasing the timer for caps, but as it is self destruct is (or should be) a "strategic" decision one can make, your proposal negates that. So I'm fine with [ 17:22:54 ] Meissa Anunthiel > lengthening the SD timer, but not with your proposal, on neither of the 2 aspects. [/end] [ 17:23:02 ] Mynxee > vuk go [ 17:23:15 ] Vuk Lau > sec [ 17:23:26 ] Vuk Lau > 1st thing - what elven said, so I dont see a point of the issue [ 17:23:36 ] Vuk Lau > 2nd - @Hellen, its not working always [ 17:23:50 ] Vuk Lau > 3rd - lets go to next issue [ 17:23:55 ] Vuk Lau > 4th - end [ 17:24:03 ] Mynxee > mazz go, final words [ 17:24:09 ] mazzilliu > that issue isnt identical to this issue. its self destruct and logoff timer. anyways most of the csm issues are re-raises of the old ones, so we can just bug ccp about the issue ststus [ 17:24:11 ] Dierdra Vaal > err [ 17:24:14 ] Dierdra Vaal > I had an ! [ 17:24:20 ] Mynxee > oh dv sorry [ 17:24:30 ] mazzilliu > also this issue doesnt change what happens to people with legitimate crashes. because those people generally log back on within 15 minutes [ 17:24:34 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:24:35 ] T'Amber > back [ 17:24:37 ] Dierdra Vaal > this is more of a clarity thing: can you adjust the text under 'Summary' to describe the current state rather than a slightly cryptic description of the solution? The wording is very confusing otherwise. .... (cont) [ 17:24:38 ] Mynxee > dv go [ 17:25:11 ] Dierdra Vaal > ...also, I do agree with maz that its not a duplicate of the self destruct issue as this issue requests that the timer is refreshed on damage. [ 17:25:40 ] Dierdra Vaal > whether the merit of the idea is open for discussion, its not the same as simply increasing the time on a self destruct timer based on ship size [ 17:25:40 ] Dierdra Vaal > end [ 17:25:51 ] Meissa Anunthiel > ! [ 17:25:58 ] Mynxee > meissa [ 17:26:38 ] Meissa Anunthiel > It changes everything for legitimate crashes, because if it happens out of combat, you get free ganking on the person. [/end] [ 17:26:55 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 17:27:00 ] Mynxee > mazz go [ 17:27:13 ] mazzilliu > meissa, the person will dissappear in 2 minutes if not shot under my proposal, there is no change for "out of combat" situations [ 17:27:23 ] mazzilliu > if they do get shot, it gets extended to 15 [ 17:27:36 ] mazzilliu > you dfont usually get probed down and shot within 2 minutes in a non combat situation [ 17:27:38 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:28:01 ] Mynxee > you can't probe a ship out in two minutes?! LOL. I can. end. [ 17:28:04 ] TeaDaze > ! [ 17:28:11 ] Mynxee > tea go [ 17:28:14 ] Meissa Anunthiel > (as per your proposal "if a player logs off and is probed down and shot", doesn't mention "while being under attack") [ 17:28:26 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 17:28:32 ] Dierdra Vaal > isnt being shot == under attack? [ 17:28:35 ] mazzilliu > what does "while being under attack" mean? [ 17:29:09 ] Mynxee > teadaze go [ 17:29:16 ] TeaDaze > I think the Self destruct issue already raised should be discussed with CCP again. As to the logoff timer, 15 mins is fine for everything but supercaps, and if you can't find enough DPS in a few mins to kill it then that is your problem [ 17:29:47 ] TeaDaze > I will not support the ability to have a rolling timer where somebody who is DCed in combat can be held agressed till downtime [ 17:30:00 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 17:30:24 ] TeaDaze > So, SD is covered in already raised proposal. Logoff timer is not a huge problem [end] [ 17:30:26 ] Sokratesz > ! [ 17:30:31 ] Mynxee > mazz go [ 17:30:32 ] mazzilliu > what in the world would someone have to gain to keep someone aggressed while logged off until downtime? that doesnt even make sense [ 17:30:36 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:30:38 ] TeaDaze > ! [ 17:30:41 ] Mynxee > sok go [ 17:30:42 ] Sokratesz > i agree with teadaze there, infinite holding should *not* be possible [end] [ 17:30:52 ] Mynxee > td go [ 17:31:25 ] TeaDaze > Giving people the ability to hold a target on a rolling timer until they can get more numbers is my point. You could basically hold somebody for 23 hours to get a kill. [end] [ 17:31:46 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 17:31:57 ] Mynxee > it sounds like there does need to be a vote here, btw. mazz go [ 17:32:07 ] mazzilliu > that is the entire point. but you would have a really terrible gang to have so little dps that you cant kill something for 23 hours [ 17:32:08 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:32:22 ] Korvin > ! [ 17:32:29 ] Mynxee > korvin go [ 17:32:52 ] Korvin > i suggest to rename this proposal as - as a player i want to kill afk and lost connection ppl [ 17:33:05 ] Trebor Daehdoow > ! [ 17:33:07 ] Korvin > and im strongly against it :P [end] [ 17:33:17 ] Mynxee > trebor go [ 17:33:36 ] Trebor Daehdoow > "mazzilliu > what in the world would someone have to gain to keep someone aggressed while logged off until downtime? that doesnt even make sense" -- somehow I think the brilliant minds of PL will find a use for this. [end] [ 17:33:49 ] Vuk Lau > ROFL, wanted to say the same [ 17:33:57 ] Mynxee > let's vote on this issue. Y or N to pass it? [ 17:34:00 ] Vuk Lau > no [ 17:34:01 ] TeaDaze > N [ 17:34:02 ] Korvin > N [ 17:34:02 ] Meissa Anunthiel > No [ 17:34:03 ] Dierdra Vaal > N [ 17:34:03 ] Mynxee > N [ 17:34:05 ] Trebor Daehdoow > NO [ 17:34:11 ] mazzilliu > yes [ 17:34:12 ] Sokratesz > n [ 17:34:24 ] TeaDaze > Failed, 1 for, 8 against [ 17:34:36 ] Mynxee > Next up: Fix Blasters http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Fix_blasters_%28CSM%29 you have the floor mazz.

[ 17:35:18 ] mazzilliu > ccp really ought to look at rebalancing ships more often, and make changes in smaller incrememts, but this is just one little thing i guess [ 17:35:19 ] mazzilliu > end [ 17:35:31 ] Mynxee > dv go [ 17:35:42 ] Dierdra Vaal > While I think hybrid guns could use looking at - I dont think we should simply say "do X to fix them" (in this case, increase range).

[ 17:36:17 ] Dierdra Vaal > ...we make these proposals so devs can read them and get an idea of what is going on/needs to happen. Saying "go read thread X to find out the details" is not sufficient imo. end [ 17:36:26 ] Mynxee > Elven go [ 17:36:45 ] ElvenLord > again, proposal came up in CSM2, CSM3 and CSM4, ended up with discussion with CCP and them commiting to look into rebalansing of hybrid guns as total. Should be in meeting minutes from a summit.

[ 17:39:01 ] Vuk Lau > there are other ways to balance blasters but as I already said problem of hybrids is old issue already discussed with CCP [ 17:39:10 ] Vuk Lau > end [ 17:39:14 ] Mynxee > sok go [ 17:39:16 ] Sokratesz > i am against this particular suggestion, their extremely short range coupled with high agility of their specialised ships makes them 'special', this would just start getting into autocannon territory. I do however want an update from CCP about the [ 17:39:17 ] Sokratesz > imbalances they are looking to fix in the next months, because they seemed receptive to it when we were in Iceland. [end] [ 17:39:23 ] Mynxee > teadaze go [ 17:39:59 ] TeaDaze > I've been discussing hybrid changes (not just blasters) with various people over the last month and we've come up with a counter proposal which is more than "fix hybrids" [ 17:40:27 ] TeaDaze > I can give the basic outline and suggest we discuss it amonst ourselves in two weeks [ 17:40:50 ] TeaDaze > Mostly because there isn't any rush to get stuff ready for the December submissions [end] [ 17:40:58 ] Mynxee > meissa go [ 17:41:00 ] Meissa Anunthiel > First, the "blaster issue" is one that has been raised in at least 3 of the past 4 CSMs, stop flogging the dead horse. 2nd, blasters have awesome DPS. That comes with a constraint, but nothing for nothing... Not everything has to be perfect in all situa [ 17:41:08 ] Meissa Anunthiel > situations. Today, you brought up 3 totally worthless proposals, you really are taking ankhe's place... Don't bother showing up if it's to keep wasting everyone's time. [/end] [ 17:41:19 ] Mynxee > korvin go [ 17:41:39 ] Korvin > I agree that Hybrid guns are need some boost, blasters and reailgins, but not by simply giving the range to the blasters. [ 17:41:46 ] Korvin > It doesn't solves a lots of issues, most of the hybrid ammo will be still useless,and blasters will lose their role, making them like a lasers with an ammo. [ 17:41:54 ] Korvin > There is something that might be done with the hybrid ammo instead, making it different by the rate of fire, trackking ets, making a good aplha on a long range and good tracking on a short range. [ 17:42:01 ] Korvin > But not via the simple range bonus. [ 17:42:05 ] Korvin > [end] [ 17:42:11 ] TeaDaze > (Do you want the outline?) [ 17:42:54 ] Mynxee > i'd rather we save that til the end of the issues list so we can get thru these? [ 17:43:18 ] Mynxee > but i want to see the outline, yes. [ 17:43:38 ] TeaDaze > Now? I can cnp [ 17:43:48 ] Mynxee > ok [ 17:43:58 ] T'Amber > ! [ 17:43:59 ] TeaDaze > Ammo changes made a great difference to projectiles. 3 range bands, different damage types within ranges, tracking bonuses to medium and long range [ 17:44:09 ] TeaDaze > Suggestion for hybrids - 3 range bands. [ 17:44:19 ] Mynxee > it will be useful info in determining the vote for this issue, anyway. [ 17:44:20 ] TeaDaze > Within range bands have a lower tracking, higher alpha (but lower rate of fire so constant DPS) a higher tracking, lower alpha (but higher ROF) and a balanced option. [ 17:44:38 ] TeaDaze > Also reduce the time taken to change ammo / reload to 5 seconds. This not only gives lots of flexibilty but it also ensures hybrids are unique. [ 17:45:18 ] TeaDaze > I have more, but that is basically the idea. Fix the ammo, give flexibility and allow ships to change from long to short range ammo as they power into range [end] [ 17:45:33 ] TeaDaze > (Also allows rails to alpha with a slower rof) [ 17:45:39 ] mazzilliu > !! [ 17:45:39 ] Mynxee > whether that proposal were to pass or not when raised, it is at least specific and easy to understand. end.

[ 17:59:25 ] mazzilliu > i collected a list of sov complaints from my corpmates and people on eveo [ 17:59:44 ] mazzilliu > sov was implemented at the beginning of this year, and its pretty known that its not a completely implemented design [ 17:59:47 ] Vuk Lau > ! [ 18:00:17 ] mazzilliu > ive been led to believe that there are parts of sov that were supposed to be implemented to counteract many of the complaints here, but never got implemented, so things are in the state that they are in now [ 18:00:45 ] mazzilliu > basically i want to ask ccp to look at sov again and give the game mechanic serious consideration. its one of the issues i get the most and the loudest complaints about [ 18:01:04 ] Helen Highwater > ! [ 18:01:08 ] mazzilliu > i dont have specific solutions because i dont like to ask for new features in csm proposals, and i know ccp has their own ideas anyways. i just want ccp to look at sov [ 18:01:16 ] mazzilliu > end [ 18:01:31 ] Mynxee > elvenlord, go [ 18:01:31 ] ElvenLord > this is gonna be a long one so prepare to read a wall of text [ 18:01:38 ] Mynxee > :) [ 18:01:42 ] ElvenLord > To start by saying there are some things that could and should be improved in sovereignty system but afaik almost none of these list in this proposal are one of them. [ 18:01:47 ] ElvenLord > Some of the listed things have already been mentioned in proper issues/proposals and either declined or passed by CSM and have been discussed with CCP. [ 18:01:49 ] T'Amber > covert [ 18:01:55 ] ElvenLord > As for features that where dropped in the new system that caused the system not to act as it was originally designed one of the key features was overhaul of standings system and with it the treaties. [ 18:02:01 ] ElvenLord > This has already been raised, discussed in CSM and with CCP and is in the backlog.One of the things that came with new sov system is significantly reduced grinding. [ 18:02:08 ] ElvenLord > Amount of HP on stations and station services was also a proposal raised and discussed with CCP, also passed and is in backlog. [ 18:02:17 ] ElvenLord > One of the solutions that was passed for small gang warfare was to reduce HP on station services to give them a juicy target. [ 18:02:26 ] ElvenLord > This came from the discussion with CCP as a good solution and is in back log. As for station HP, it is one of 2 conditions for taking a sov in a system, it is supposed to be hard to get it. [ 18:02:33 ] ElvenLord > Let me remind you eve is not HON or WOW, nothing is instant. If you want instant solutions go play another game. EVE requires a lot of team work, planning and dedication aka effort. [ 18:02:41 ] ElvenLord > As for statement that sov relies only on numbers I will just say bullshit. PL, Ev0ke, cry havoc and so many other alliances are prime example of that. [ 18:02:47 ] ElvenLord > They are capable of taking sov from enemies 5x bigger then they are with good team work, dedication and organisation. So if you don't have those you prolly should not hold sov in the first place. [ 18:02:52 ] ElvenLord > Not to mention the number of system that change hands on a daily basis with new sov rather then it was with the old system. [ 18:02:59 ] ElvenLord > Second thing here is that sov take a lot of work to build (not something you know off). To create a good living environment takes months of work, it takes dedication etc. It should not be able to fall instantly like some ppl would like. [ 18:03:08 ] ElvenLord > If you want it then you need to work, there are no instant win buttons in eve, and never there should be any. [ 18:03:19 ] ElvenLord > Capital, supercapital, station, cynojammer, jump bridge, large structure inflation. The only inflation that came here was supercapital HP, and it was long awaited one, [ 18:03:27 ] mazzilliu > ! [ 18:03:29 ] Korvin > ! [ 18:03:30 ] ElvenLord > tho I must agree that supercarriers are a bit overinflated, as they have the same EHP as titans, and thats not a good thing (price/building time vs HP). [ 18:03:33 ] Meissa Anunthiel > ! [ 18:03:35 ] ElvenLord > On the other hand with few scarriers you take the station in a blink of an eye, so that's it about too much EHP :S [ 18:03:45 ] ElvenLord > True problem here is not the timer or EHP its the politics/diplomacy in eve, but again if you can not handle that part of eve you should go play missions or find another game. Politics is not something you can limit by game mechanics or design. [ 18:03:50 ] ElvenLord > I agree dreads have kinda lost their unique purpose and have become the new BS, but hey its life. [ 18:03:56 ] ElvenLord > As for sov warfare not being fun, its not all the time, but then again its not supposed to be. Fights are fun on the other hand but then again, opponent can always choose not to give you one and that is something you can not control. [ 18:04:01 ] ElvenLord > Then there is the expectation and waiting part that can be fun etc. Let me just quote you its a necessary evil, and if you look at it that way then where is the problem? Initiating sov warfare brings the fun part. [ 18:04:17 ] ElvenLord > And now comes funny part, proposal complains about timers and then says that only a small amount of time determines fate of sov but before that its said they are too long. Let me just point to 2 quotes Timers are way too long and [ 18:04:28 ] ElvenLord > Only a small amount of time determines the fate of sov. SO wich one is it? [ 18:04:32 ] Mynxee > just to be sure i havent lost the plot: next in line to talk: vuk, Helen, mazz, korvin, meissa. [ 18:04:35 ] ElvenLord > As I said few times not, taking, building, maintaining and eventually losing sovereignty are processes and as suck require time, determination and effort (work). That's whats good about them and what makes them worth while. [ 18:04:41 ] ElvenLord > . If we change those then there is no satisfaction in any of them, and eve will not be the game we all love and sometimes hate but we keep playing it for years. [ 18:04:46 ] ElvenLord > Last statement you wrote about lag is not something that is linked to game mechanics of sov warfare, it is something that affects entire game and all activities in it. [ 18:04:52 ] ElvenLord > To wrap it up, sov does maybe need few tweaks here and there and yes scarriers should get a reduction in HP (like 15-20%) but none of the other things you mentioned are even worth reading. [ 18:04:58 ] ElvenLord > Again if you want something happening instantly go play some other game, eve is not for you. [ 18:05:04 ] ElvenLord > For the tweaks here and there there is like 12-13 suggestions passed by CSM and CCP that are in the backlog that will improve sov or some sov-related activities. But until then ... new sov is good (perfect compared to previous system). [ 18:05:07 ] Dierdra Vaal > (( I have to go afk briefly )) [ 18:05:07 ] ElvenLord > [end] [ 18:05:17 ] Mynxee > vuk you're next. go [ 18:05:32 ] Vuk Lau > ok, sorry for not pretyping I didnt know what Elven will post, but I will try to be brief and fast (sorry for typos) [ 18:05:32 ] Mynxee > (and thanks for that insightful long response, EL) [ 18:05:49 ] Vuk Lau > as the addition what Elven said [ 18:06:02 ] Vuk Lau > well,,,I dont have nothing to add :( [ 18:06:10 ] Mynxee > lol [ 18:06:10 ] Vuk Lau > [18:04:57] ElvenLord > To wrap it up, sov does maybe need few tweaks here and there and yes scarriers should get a reduction in HP (like 15-20%) but none of the other things you mentioned are even worth reading.

That hasn't happened. The same thing was said of PI in Tyrannis and the winter expansion will be [ 18:06:33 ] Vuk Lau > ! [ 18:06:42 ] Sokratesz > ! [ 18:07:22 ] Helen Highwater > iterated on. This is sending out a fairly clear message in my opinion. Sovereignty is finished and complete so we are stuck with the system we curentyl have but planetville will continue to see dev-attention. [ 18:07:45 ] Helen Highwater > that's a pretty demoralising realisation for most 0.0 dwellers tbh [emd] [ 18:07:57 ] Mynxee > mazz you're next. go. [ 18:08:00 ] mazzilliu > inflation- i am talking about how many people have them not their HPalso nothing in the proposal asks for any instant win button. and are you seriously arguing to keep sov warfare not fun like its a good thing? [ 18:08:15 ] ElvenLord > ! [ 18:08:20 ] mazzilliu > about timers- what i mean is theres a long wait, and then all of a sudden you can shoot stuff again, and it either gets destroyed, or the fleet trying to destroy it gets destroyed [ 18:08:35 ] T'Amber > covert [ 18:08:40 ] mazzilliu > i think you misunderstood some of the complaints that i bought up, elvenlord, but i also dont think that sov has to be not fun [ 18:08:47 ] Mynxee > tamber stop it [ 18:09:23 ] mazzilliu > like helen said ccp promised iteration and we haven't got any, so we need to bug them about it [ 18:10:04 ] mazzilliu > i dont want to dictate whatever sov will end up being, but i think that whatever it is, if we can fix some of the long grind stuff, then things won't be so bad [ 18:10:48 ] mazzilliu > i know that theres lots of activity with systems getting taken out and sov changing hands, but people will do stuff that isn't fun just so they can gain something, so total activity level isnt always the best indicator of how great sov is [ 18:11:19 ] mazzilliu > anyways thats all [ 18:11:27 ] mazzilliu > i mean end [ 18:11:28 ] Mynxee > (Incidentally, I can our December Summit session agenda shaping up based on a number of discussion points in today's meeting. )Korvin, go.

[ 18:30:20 ] ElvenLord > untill your CC expires or you cancel your subscription [ 18:30:28 ] ElvenLord > I get mails regulary [ 18:30:50 ] ElvenLord > 2 months before my CC expires and then 1 month, 15 days, 7 days ....

[ 18:30:59 ] ElvenLord > so you do get notification [ 18:31:21 ] ElvenLord > for plex since its something you need to do something before getting a plex you need a reminder [ 18:31:44 ] T'Amber > !

[ 18:32:34 ] Mynxee > meissa go [ 18:32:42 ] Meissa Anunthiel > players get a notification is the subscription fails to renew. Other than that they get their CC statements.

Being able to get a warning that your card will be charged will be useful to people, especially those using debit cards who get hit with fees if the account becomes overdrawn.

[ 18:36:39 ] Helen Highwater > generally speaking MMO companies don't like to remind people that their subs are about to renew because that createswhat's known as a decision moment.

[ 18:40:05 ] mazzilliu > im asking you guys, you can just speak to me [ 18:40:10 ] Mynxee > or can we vote with those amendments ? [ 18:40:19 ] Dierdra Vaal > vote :) [ 18:40:20 ] mazzilliu > im adding thw two to the wiki now [ 18:40:22 ] Meissa Anunthiel > yes we can!
